The events of the past few days can leave children feeling anxious and alone. Here are some resources to process, cope, and discuss the events with the children in your life. (Tip on questions from psychiatrist @markgoulston)
Having covered many protests over the years, I do wonder if the majority of these folks were black and brown whether they’d be treated the same way they’re being treated right now.
“White Americans aren’t afraid of the cops. White Americans are never afraid of the cops, even when they’re committing an insurrection,” @JoyAnnReid says about the Trump supporters rioting the US Capitol.
I join President-elect @JoeBiden in calling for the assault on the Capitol and our nation’s public servants to end, and as he said, “allow the work of democracy to go forward.”
Let me be very clear: the scenes of chaos at the Capitol do not represent who we are. What we are seeing is a small number of extremists dedicated to lawlessness. This is not dissent, it's disorder. It borders on sedition, and it must end. Now.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen. Onward, together.
Be Bald and Be Free—embrace this day! To say that it’s “hard” losing your hair because of breast cancer treatment is an understatement. Today is a great day to remind ourselves and each other that true beauty comes from within.
I share the outrage of the injustice and I stand with the protesters.
It’s not just George Floyd. There are 50 or more cases just like it.
It is rooted in hundreds of years of racism and injustice.
Let’s use this energy constructively and demand real, positive change.
I wrote out some thoughts on how to make this moment a real turning point to bring about real change––and pulled together some resources to help young activists sustain the momentum by channeling their energy into concrete action. https://t.co/jEczrOeFdv
Why are black people dying from #COVID at higher rates than white people? Why are health outcomes worse in communities of color? Why did George Floyd die? Why does this happen again and again? It’s all related.
